[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vb6xxeE_2ik&w=560&h=315] Gentle reader, have you seen the pigs flying? That’s right, The End is upon us. To celebrate that dogs and cats are living together in mass hysteria, Patty (a.k.a. *Name Redacted*) and I have decided to review a book together. We’ve chosen J.R.

Griff is a giant of a man whose […]
